Is summer really almost over?

Wow.  August is in two days.  Where has the summer gone?  Seems like Memorial Day just passed and now fall clothes are in stores and the kids are heading back to school in just a few weeks.

My schedule feels as full as ever.  I am playing soccer, kickball, racing, working and coaching soccer starts in a couple of weeks.  I also started a mini-garden and have three pots of tomatoes and some green peppers growing.  I am really enjoying come home each day to water my plants and see if there is anything ready to harvest.  They are growing so quickly, I am amazed.  I have begged Simon to dig me a place in the yard to expand my garden growings but so far, to no avail.  Here is a picture from a couple weeks ago.
 
So with the blink of an eye, my tomatoes are all grown up and summer is gone.  I plan to really make the most of the next few weeks and soak up the summer sun as much as possible.

Welcome Back

It's been a while since I have been online.  I have been out of town travelling a lot and hadn't taken the time to hop on here.
It is summertime, one of my favorite times of the year.  It has been so rainy here.
We have done the best we can to maintain our family tradition of boating on the weekends but have spent as much time inside my dad's motorhome as we have laying by the water.  Here are a few recent photos.



I am working to plan a mini-vaca with my oldest niece and nephew.  I am also planning my first trip to Ecuador to visit one of my best friends.  In the mix of that, I am racing nearly every weekend and trying to find time to go to Atlanta for a quick trip with my husband.  Before we know it, cooler temps will be here and my tan will have faded away.

Hope you are having a great summer.  :)
